Going fully Wireless IEMs. Too soon? Or are we there yet?
Got the MTW's in. Love them, no issues with mine. One complaint is the Transparent Hearing is a bit too quiet. Wish there was a way to adjust that.- haveblue

Any idea when the Senns will be back in stock at vendors? Got $50 off of them from Neiman Marcus before they showed as sold out, and customer service gave me no ETA on stock date, although I assume they'll fulfill my order since I placed it when it was still backordered.- haveblue

It'll also find album art for you. I mean, if you're gonna be this serious enough about portable music when a cell phone does the job 95% as well, you may as well go the last step and have a correctly formatted library with album art etc.- haveblue

I'm getting the "invalid file, file format not supported" error message on some mp3's, but only when the song is 5-10 seconds away from finishing. They play fine, they just cut out at the very end and then it plays the next song. All my metadata, file names, and ID3 tags are consistent. Any...- haveblue

Got mine from Joybuy today! Before anyone asks, the cable is this Aliexpress cable that I terminated with a Plus Sound 4.4mm plug.- haveblue

My point is that for anyone with issues displaying artwork on modern Walkmans, TagScanner can mass recompress all your existing artwork so that it'll 100% work.- haveblue

You probably did all your album art through some program that only finds baseline jpg's. When browsing through google images it's a crapshoot. This was my experience before I mass converted my whole library with TagScanner, since about 1/4 of my album art did not show up. If it's not a baseline...- haveblue

All album art needs to be jpeg saved in baseline compression. Progressive jpegs do not display. Mp3tag has no batch feature for this, but TagScanner does. It can recompress your whole library in one action.- haveblue

I didn't see it on my desktop either. Think the popup blocker disabled the coupon message. Logged into joybuy on mobile and got the notification. Try that.- haveblue

I can't find anything in this thread or on Sony's international sites saying that the ZX300A does or does not have an English language option. But the "select language option" section of Sony's online manual for the ZX300/ZX300A makes no differentiation between the two so I assume it'll have the...- haveblue

Astell&Kern AK T8iE MkⅡ(Impressions and discussions thread)
I went with this one: https://www.aliexpress.com/snapshot/0.html?spm=a2g0s.9042647.0.0.IQok5W&orderId=88955185140626&productId=32816549815 Planning to solder on a 4.4mm balanced Plus Sound plug since I have a Walkman on order. IMO just get the one you think looks best. They all sound the same.- haveblue
